From the moment you arrive at Olga your senses will tell you that you are entering an exotic hideaway. The Olga villas are reached through terraced gardens and pathways reminiscent of an old Cretan village, filled with dozens of species of flowers, herbs and trees. Truly a botanist’s delight. The trees create archways of welcome shade across stone paths. Giant stone urns trail heavily perfumed plants such as jasmine, gardenia and tobacco flowers. The sun shines on whitewashed walls emblazoned with scarlet geraniums brimming out of giant earthenware ‘pithari’. These magical surroundings provide an oasis-like setting for the inviting freshwater swimming pool, sunloungers and pretty parasols. Tradition and architecture are featured and strongly preserved in the most complementary way through the passion of the owner Michalis , who love to collect anything old. This includes massive terracotta pots, antique stone urns and bygone objects. In every corner you will see pieces of marble, alabaster, fossils and even part of a Corinthian pedestal. His collection is fascinating. There are three large villas and threee smaller completely independent self-contained units. All have been individually designed and tastefully decorated in traditional Cretan style. Amphitheatrically built, they enjoy breathtaking views of Mirabello bay and distant mountains. The location is exceptional. The road outside the villas will take you to Elounda and Aghios Nikolaos (three miles in either direction). Taxis can be requested from a communal telephone point within the gardens and the bus stop is close by.

Town and location of object

show on map

The Gulf of Mirabello This is an area of magnetic charm-straight out of a Cretan picture book. It has some of the most beautiful scenery and unspoilt countryside on the entire northern coast of Crete. The curving coastline is interspersed with pocket-sized coves. On its shores are the cosmopolitan resort of Aghios Nikolaos and the picturesque fishing village of Elounda. The ancient little village of Elinika lies a ten minute ride away from both these resorts and is surrounded by fruit orchards and olive groves. Here village life has remained unchanged and unhurried.

Aghios Nikolaos , Lasithi , Kriti , Greece

Aghios Nikolaos, with over forty years of experience in the tourism industry, is an international and cosmopolitan resort that welcomes thousands of visitors annually. The lake is its most charming feature. Legend suggests that Athena and Armetis bathed in its waters. This lake is connected to the sea by a straight channel, while its natural surroundings of red rock and trees attract the visitor magnetically. At a small open-air theatre by the lake, locals and visitors alike can enjoy interesting artistic and cultural presentations. A walk around the shops of Aghios Nikolaos is an enjoyable experience. In the many stores the visitor can find a wide selection of traditional Cretan artwork, copies of pieces from different archaeological museums, jewelry, and embroidery. There are also many examples of woven goods and Byzantine icons. There are bustling cafeterias, charming coffeehouses and taverns serving traditional Cretan “mesedes” or tidbits of local food.
